Share Sketch

 

You can see in some drop down menu there is share sketch option and in some drop down menu there is no share sketch option. What is the reason for that.

Sometimes it can happen.

 

If you need to use it in another feature, just turn it visible and you can use it again.

Uhmmm, perhaps because it is already marked as a Shared Sketch (that is what the hand in the sketch symbol means).

Sketch3 is shared in Extrusion7, 3, 4.

My understanding from your explanation is all sketch drop down menu has share sketch option. If we use that option then there will no longer be a share sketch option in that drop down menu of that particular sketch.

no ... you can continue to share the original sketch ..

 

 

you can't share a shared ...   that's why you don't see it that drop down.

This is a known issue (one of the several present in the browser in all of enviroments).

There's no logical reason, It's kind of a harmless bug.

 

Workaround: Make it visible and everyone can use it as a shared sketch.
